22 Using Your AlphaSmart 3000
entire files can be selected and copied to the clipboard if necessary. To
select all the data within a file, press x-A.
You can view the clipboard status by pressing option-x-C. This
command gives you the number of text pages currently in the clipboard,
and how much empty space is still available.
Find Feature
To access the AlphaSmart Find feature, press the find key or x-F.
You will see a screen that says:
Find:_________
Press Enter to search in file 1,
Option-Enter to search in all files,
CMD-G to Find again, Esc to exit.
At the cursor, you may enter up to 16 characters. The search is not case
sensitive, so if you are looking for “CAT” and type in “cat”, the search
will find cat, CAT, Cat, or caT. It will also find partial words or
characters embedded in other words. For example, if you searched for
“cat”, it will also show you “catalog.”
If you press enter after entering your search text, it will search in the
current file only. If you press Option-Enter, it will search in all eight
files. However, if password protection is activated, the Option-Enter
command cannot be used and you can only search in the current file.
When a string is found in a different file than the one currently
displayed, it will open that file and put a cursor at the end of the string it
found.
After the text is found once, you may continue the search by pressing
x-G. The next occurrence will be displayed or the message Text NOT
found will be displayed. (x-G does not bring up the Find dialog screen,
unless this is the first time you are using the Find function.)
